    Hij was een ambitieuze en levenlustige man.
    Merijn was getrouwd met Mien van Elzakker, ze hadden 4 kinderen, Kees, Mia, Correke en Leentje.
    Tot begin 1952 woonde het gezin in bij de ouders van Mien, daarna zijn ze verhuisd naar de polder.
    De moeder van Merijn was overleden en hij heeft toen het bedrijf overgenomen van zijn vader.
    Op de avond voor de Ramp hadden Merijn en z’n hoog zwangere vrouw nog een hele avond geholpen bij de schoonouders in het cafe.
